But so many of our constitutional 'rules' are quite modern, really, aren't they? Victoria was responsible for many of our ancient customs. We've done awfully well to keep the monarchy up to date and relevant.
Have to admit it's all a bit silly mind you, all this nonsense about Royalty and being in some way special or superior when a fit bit of snatch like your one that married the oldest son can just fúck her way to the top table?
